>>We need more Republicans who won’t take crap from media people. One of the reasons Newt Gingrich is popular among conservatives is that he hits back, he gives as well as he gets in debates and interviews.

Spot on, and worth saying again.

In the 2012 primaries I was initially for Herman Cain, and then later Newt, for exactly this reason. It is why I am fast becoming a big fan of Senator Cruz.

We must have candidates who can take on the media. Dole and Romney show us why the alternative is a disaster.

Dole & Romney were GOP choices... The GOP villainized Palin and then eliminated Herman Cain as a candidate because they knew both of them would at least attempt to change Washington, The GOP does want control, as long as our option is somebody they can control, but they dont want Washington changed any more than the libs do!

Also Rand Paul is making a good case for himself. He's actually on the news shows talking about the fallacy of baseline budgeting and the "cuts" in the "rate of increase".

What the GOP needs is someone who'll FIGHT!

Until they change the primary system to allow all states to participate, this is all an intellectual exercise significant of nothing. The current practice allows the elite to continue controlling the outcome by forcing a prolonged fight that erodes the candidates’ ability to continue the fight until all states have a chance to have a say.

In Minnesota, we vote either “Me, too!” or stay home. We don’t have another choice. I wish I cared about this talk of what Conservatives must do or not do.

Newt is great in a debate, but when he gets back in DC he falls back into the RINO mold and supports most every lib democrat-lite talking point out there, i.e. global warming, amnesty, welfare, state-run healthcare, etc.

“We must have candidates who can take on the media.”

Today’s backstabbing media is worse than the East German Stasi. Bud sadly the media is the message, and talk radio can’t compete with the visual media’s propaganda and pablum to the low information voter.

The Left constantly engages in mock ridicule and feigned PC victimization. Even the Rush of Reason can’t combat that.

Gregg Gutfeld’s Red Eye is RushTV, and is the best program that can reach the LIV. It mocks and ridicules them back and comes on at the LIV’s prime time viewing hours.

I thoroughly enjoy listening to Rush, but he was late to the Savage message of Language Borders Culture. He thought he could educate us back to sanity, but the Stasi media has poured so much hate and division in this country that no one listens.
